    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a test probe by which an optical device can be tested at high speed and efficiently. SOLUTION: An optical testing apparatus comprises an optical fiber having a first numerical aperture at the front end part of the optical fiber. A positioning structure is attached to the optical fiber so that the first end part of the optical fiber is moved up to an arbitrary part on a substrate in order to test the optical device. The optical device can be arranged and installed in an arbitrary position on the substrate, and it supplies a light beam at an emission angle smaller than the first numerical aperture. A test head condenses the light beam via the optical fiber in order to test the optical device. Also a method in which the optical fiber is positioned in order to test the optical device is disclosed.

    Abstract: The invention addresses the problem of creating a high-speed, high-efficiency photodetector that is compatible with Si CMOS technology. The structure consists of a Ge absorbing layer on a thin SOI substrate, and utilizes isolation regions, alternating n-­and p-type contacts, and low-resistance surface electrodes. The device achieves high bandwidth by utilizing a buried insulating layer to isolate carriers generated in the underlying substrate, high quantum efficiency over a broad spectrum by utilizing a Ge absorbing layer, low voltage operation by utilizing thin a absorbing layer and narrow electrode spacings, and compatibility with CMOS devices by virtue of its planar structure and use of a group IV absorbing material. The method for fabricating the photodetector uses direct growth of Ge on thin SOI or an epitaxial oxide, and subsequent thermal annealing to achieve a high-quality absorbing layer. This method limits the amount of Si available for interdiffusion, thereby allowing the Ge layer to be annealed without causing substantial dilution of the Ge layer by the underlying Si.
